Letter: Teach children God’s law to combat moral evils

Nothing could be more clear from Scripture than that God condemns homosexuality. It is ungodly and immoral. But immorality has been elevated to the category of civil rights in this country, to its great detriment.

The murder of unborn infants, the widespread practice of fornication and adultery, pornography on demand, and now homosexuality are not divinely sanctioned options. There is no reason to believe that God has changed his mind in the 21st century and must now apologize to Sodom. These practices are as wicked and vile as the Bible claims them to be.

All the “my rights” excuses in the world will not change that. Sin can be graciously forgiven, but when a society continues to endorse evil under the guise of human rights and sees nothing wrong with it, then that society cannot endure. It will destroy itself.

The rebellious lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God are more brazen now. And the people of moral principle — the Tony Dungys, the David Greens (Hobby Lobby) — the kinds of people who truly made this nation great, are being marginalized as antiquated, bigoted, narrow-minded by people like sportswriter Christine Brennan and Attorney General Eric Holder.

Whatever happened to religious freedom and respect for godly convictions? They are being trumped by trumped-up, so-called civil rights, a misnomer for moral rebellion. Many of our national leaders have become advocates of immorality, and increasingly the populace is following suit. They have not only lost their moral compass, they have deliberately buried it.

Well, what do we do? “Let’s buy more guns.” No, let’s teach our children divine statutes and principles that have eternal value — the best defense they can have against the onslaught of evil.
